I would not have released Patel into Pike's custody after how she lost control when confronted with "Gamble". Like, clearly the being inhabiting his body was malevolent, but "the enemy of my enemy" doesn't make it ok that she basically got taken over by a consciousness besides her own. Leaving her alone with the captain of the ship feels especially dangerous (and letting her captain her own ship again, for that matter).
Given it's been established the only person who can really help control Batel is Spock, and he is incommunicado for the whole episode, both Batel and Gamble should have been in confinement as soon as possible.
